* event-top.c: Include buffer.h.
(gdb_readline_no_editing_callback): Use struct buffer instead
of xrealloc.

2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* common/buffer.h (buffer_grow_char): New function.
* top.c: Include buffer.h.
(gdb_readline_no_editing): Rename 'prompt_arg' parameter to
'prompt'. Use struct buffer instead of xrealloc.
Name this such that it's clearer that this is not a wrapper for the
real readline, but instead a replacement that provides no command line
editing features.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* defs.h (gdb_readline): Delete declaration.
* top.c (gdb_readline): Rename to ...
(gdb_readline_no_editing): ... this, and make static.
These comments are out of date -- we no longer call gdb_readline. And
I think that mentioning the event loop is more useful here than
whatever GO32 issue had with gdb_readline, which may even no longer be
an issue.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* utils.c (prompt_for_continue): Update comments.
The comments and existence of this global are a bit of misleading
obfuscation, since this is only ever used to print the prompt
annotation, and never changes. Just hardcode "prompt" where
necessary, as done for most other annotations.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* event-top.c (async_annotation_suffix): Delete.
(top_level_prompt, command_line_handler): Don't use
'async_annotation_suffix' and simplify.
* event-top.h (async_annotation_suffix): Delete declaration.
(init_main): Remove reference to 'async_annotation_suffix'.
I checked, and Insight doesn't set this.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* top.c (window_hook): Delete.
(command_loop): Remove references to window_hook.
I happened to break this locally and the testsuite didn't notice it.
Add some tests.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* gdb.base/command-line-input.exp: New file.
gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
* linux-ppc-low.c (ppc_supports_tracepoints): New function.
(struct linux_target_ops): Wire in the above.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/ftrace.exp: Set arg0exp for ppc.
* gdb.trace/mi-trace-unavailable.exp: Set pcnum for ppc.
* gdb.trace/pending.exp: Accept leading dot before function name.
* gdb.trace/trace-common.h: Add fast tracepoint dummy insn for ppc.
* lib/trace-support.exp: Set registers for ppc.
On powerpc64, "disassemble foo" doesn't work properly on object files
(it can't process the relocations in .opd section) - instead, let's
link it into an executable and load that.
Also, backtrace displays .main, not main. Accept both.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/entry-values.exp: Link ${binfile}1.o to ${binfile}1 and
use it for disassembly; accept .main in addition to main in backtrace.
tfind.exp sets a breakpoint on *gdb_recursion_test, which is the global
entry point on ppc64le, and won't be hit, since the call uses
the local entry. Fix by calling the function via a pointer in a global
variable, forcing use of the global entry.
This patch is a slightly modified hunk extracted from

gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Wei-cheng Wang <cole945@gmail.com>
Marcin Kościelnicki <koriakin@0x04.net>
* gdb.trace/actions.c (gdb_recursion_test_fp): New typedef.
(gdb_recursion_test_ptr): New global variable.
(gdb_recursion_test): Call gdb_recursion_test_ptr instead of
gdb_recursion_test.
(gdb_c_test): Ditto.
powerpc (32-bit) loads shared libraries below the main executable, so
the PENDING location is the first one, which the current regex doesn't
match. Split it into two tests instead, one looking for the pending
tracepoint location, and the other for two installed locations.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/change-loc.exp: Don't depend on tracepoint location
ordering.
On powerpc64, foo/bar point to a function descriptor, not to function code.
Since there are no global labels pointing at the actual function code,
let's make our own.
Regression-tested on x86_64.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gdb.trace/unavailable-dwarf-piece.c (foo): Add foo_start_lbl label.
(bar): Add bar_start_lbl label.
* gdb.trace/unavailable-dwarf-piece.exp: Use foo/bar_start_lbl instead
of foo/bar for emitting DWARF and tracing.
Previously, backchain was read as a signed quantity, resulting in
addresses like 0xfffffffffffeded0 instead of 0xfffeded0 returned by
unwinder on 32-bit powerpc. While normally such addresses are masked
off, this causes problems for tracepoints, since 0xfffffffffffeded0
is considered unavailable.
Fixes a test failure in gdb.trace/entry-values.exp.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* corefile.c (safe_read_memory_unsigned_integer): New function.
* gdbcore.h (safe_read_memory_unsigned_integer): New prototype.
* rs6000-tdep.c (rs6000_frame_cache): Read backchain as unsigned.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* rs6000-tdep.c: Add "ax.h" and "ax-gdb.h" includes.
(rs6000_gen_return_address): New function.
(rs6000_gdbarch_init): Wire in the above.
Functions compiled with the gcc option `-mhotpatch' may start with a
branch-never BRCL instruction as a 6-byte NOP. And functions compiled
with `-mstack-size' contain a BRC instruction in their prologue that is
actually a conditional trap. Both of these special jumps cause the
prologue parser to stop and yield bad unwinding results.
This change makes the prologue analyzer recognize such special jumps and
ignore them.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* s390-linux-tdep.c (s390_analyze_prologue): Ignore BRC and BRCL
instructions that do nothing or are conditional traps.
When determining the frame ID of an inline frame, GDB currently asserts
that a valid ID of the underlying real frame is found, and that it does
not match outer_frame_id. From inline_frame_this_id():
/* For now, require we don't match outer_frame_id either (see
comment above). */
gdb_assert (!frame_id_eq (*this_id, outer_frame_id));
However, this assertion may fail when the real frame's unwinder can not
determine the frame ID. This happened on an s390x target with a binary
that lacked call frame information and also confused the prologue
analyzer, because then s390_frame_this_id() left the frame ID at its
default.
To fix this, this change enhances s390_frame_this_id such that an
unavailable-stack frame ID is built if no frame base can be determined
but the function address is available.
gdb/ChangeLog:
* s390-linux-tdep.c (s390_prologue_frame_unwind_cache): Store
frame func's PC in info->func before any other failure can occur.
(s390_frame_this_id): Use frame_id_build_unavailable_stack if
info->func has been filled out.
It's not possible today to select some of the osabis by name.
Specifically, those that have spaces in their names and then the first
word is ambiguous...
For example:
(gdb) set osabi <TAB>
[...]
FreeBSD ELF
FreeBSD a.out
[...]
(gdb) set osabi FreeBSD ELF
Ambiguous item "FreeBSD ELF".
In reality, because "set osabi" is an enum command, that was
equivalent to trying "set osabi FreeBSD", which is then obviously
ambiguous, because of "FreeBSD ELF" and "FreeBSD a.out".
Also, even if the first word is not ambiguous, we actually ignore
whatever comes after the first word:
(gdb) set osabi GNU/Linux
(gdb) show osabi
The current OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".
The default OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".
(gdb) set osabi Windows SomeNonsense
^^^^^^^^^^^^
(gdb) show osabi
The current OS ABI is "Windows CE".
The default OS ABI is "GNU/Linux".
(gdb)
Fix this by avoiding spaces in osabi names.
We could instead make "set osabi" have a custom set hook, or
alternatively make the enum set hook (in cli-setshow.c) handle values
with spaces, but OTOH, I have a feeling that could cause trouble.
E.g., in cases where we might want to write more than one enum value
in the same line. We could support quoting as workaround, but, not
sure we want that. "No spaces" seems like a simpler rule.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* osabi.c (gdb_osabi_names): Avoid spaces in osabi names.
Even though "set architecture" presents fr300 as option:
(gdb) set architecture fr<TAB>
fr300 fr400 fr450 fr500 fr550 frv
Actually selecting fr300 doesn't work:
(gdb) set architecture fr300
Architecture `fr300' not recognized.
The target architecture is set automatically (currently i386)
(gdb)
This just looks like an obvious oversight. Looking around gcc and
binutils sources, FR300 is basically a FR500 specialized for DSP and
low power.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* frv-tdep.c (frv_gdbarch_init): Handle bfd_mach_fr300.
This fixes:
$ ./gdb -q -ex "set endian big" -ex "set architecture cris"
The target is assumed to be big endian
.../src/gdb/cris-tdep.c:4051: internal-error: cris_gdbarch_init: big endian byte order in info
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n)
The "set cris-version" command can likewise cause internal errors.
The gdbarch init routine should be returning 0 to reject the
architecture instead of internal erroring on user input.
gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-09 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* cris-tdep.c (cris_gdbarch_init): Return 0 if the info's byte
order is BFD_ENDIAN_BIG or if the cris version is unsupported.
Running the testsuite with a gdb configured with --enable-libmcheck
reveals a problem:
(gdb) ptype 3 * 2.0

UNRESOLVED: gdb.dlang/expression.exp: ptype 0x1p-52L
Even though this shows up with Ada and D, it's easy to reproduce in C

32-bit, which is the default when gdb starts up:
$ ./gdb -q -ex "ptype 1.0L"

Even if the target and host floating-point formats match, the length
of the types might still be different. On x86, long double is the
80-bit extended precision type on both 32-bit and 64-bit ABIs, but by
default it is stored as 12 bytes on 32-bit, and 16 bytes on 64-bit,
for alignment reasons. Several places in doublest.c already consider
this, but floatformat_to_doublest and floatformat_from_doublest miss
it. E.g., convert_typed_floating and store_typed_floating,

The trouble is that hppa_linux_init_abi overrides the default
long_double_bit set by the generic hppa-tdep.c:
set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 128);
set_gdbarch_long_double_format (gdbarch, floatformats_ia64_quad);
with:
/* On hppa-linux, currently, sizeof(long double) == 8. There has been
some discussions to support 128-bit long double, but it requires some
more work in gcc and glibc first. */
set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 64);
which misses overriding the long_double_format, so we end with a weird
combination of:
set_gdbarch_long_double_bit (gdbarch, 64);
set_gdbarch_long_double_format (gdbarch, floatformats_ia64_quad);
Weird because floatformats_ia64_quad's totalsize is longer than 64-bits.
The floatformat conversion routines use the struct floatformat's
totalsize (in bits) to know how much to copy/convert, thus the buffer
overruns.
gdb/ChangeLog:

We already check whether info.abfd is NULL before all other
bfd_get_flavour calls in the same function. Just this one case was

gdb/ChangeLog:
2016-03-07 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com>
* mips-tdep.c (mips_gdbarch_init): Check whether info.abfd is NULL
before calling bfd_get_flavour.
I forgot to do it in my previous commit. This is necessary because we
execute the script directly on gdb/testsuite/Makefile.in.
gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog:
2016-03-06 Sergio Durigan Junior <sergiodj@redhat.com>
* analyze-racy-logs.py: Set executable bit.
This is an initial attempt to introduce some mechanisms to identify
racy testcases present in our testsuite. As can be seen in previous
discussions, racy tests are really bothersome and cause our BuildBot
to pollute the gdb-testers mailing list with hundreds of
false-positives messages every month. Hopefully, identifying these
racy tests in advance (and automatically) will contribute to the
reduction of noise traffic to gdb-testers, maybe to the point where we
will be able to send the failure messages directly to the authors of
the commits.
I spent some time trying to decide the best way to tackle this
problem, and decided that there is no silver bullet. Racy tests are
tricky and it is difficult to catch them, so the best solution I could
find (for now?) is to run our testsuite a number of times in a row,
and then compare the results (i.e., the gdb.sum files generated during
each run). The more times you run the tests, the more racy tests you
are likely to detect (at the expense of waiting longer and longer).
You can also run the tests in parallel, which makes things faster (and
contribute to catching more racy tests, because your machine will have
less resources for each test and some of them are likely to fail when
this happens). I did some tests in my machine (8-core i7, 16GB RAM),
and running the whole GDB testsuite 5 times using -j6 took 23 minutes.
Not bad.
In order to run the racy test machinery, you need to specify the
RACY_ITER environment variable. You will assign a number to this
variable, which represents the number of times you want to run the
tests. So, for example, if you want to run the whole testsuite 3
times in parallel (using 2 cores), you will do:
make check RACY_ITER=3 -j2
It is also possible to use the TESTS variable and specify which tests
you want to run:
make check TEST='gdb.base/default.exp' RACY_ITER=3 -j2
And so on. The output files will be put at the directory
gdb/testsuite/racy_outputs/.
After make invokes the necessary rules to run the tests, it finally
runs a Python script that will analyze the resulting gdb.sum files.
This Python script will read each file, and construct a series of sets
based on the results of the tests (one set for FAIL's, one for
PASS'es, one for KFAIL's, etc.). It will then do some set operations
and come up with a list of unique, sorted testcases that are racy.
The algorithm behind this is:
for state in PASS, FAIL, XFAIL, XPASS...; do
if a test's state in every sumfile is $state; then
it is not racy
else
it is racy
(The algorithm is actually a bit more complex than that, because it
takes into account other things in order to decide whether the test
should be ignored or not).
IOW, a test must have the same state in every sumfile.
After processing everything, the script prints the racy tests it could
identify on stdout. I am redirecting this to a file named racy.sum.
Something else that I wasn't sure how to deal with was non-unique
messages in our testsuite. I decided to do the same thing I do in our
BuildBot: include a unique identifier in the end of message, like:
gdb.base/xyz.exp: non-unique message
gdb.base/xyz.exp: non-unique message <<2>>
This means that you will have to be careful about them when you use
the racy.sum file.
I ran the script several times here, and it did a good job catching
some well-known racy tests. Overall, I am satisfied with this
approach and I think it will be helpful to have it upstream'ed. I
also intend to extend our BuildBot and create new, specialized
builders that will be responsible for detecting the racy tests every X
number of days.

When calling function with argument of size more than 8 bytes fails with
an error "That operation is not available on integers of more than 8 bytes.".
avr-gdb considers only 8 bytes (sizeof(long long)) in case of passing the
argument in registers. When the argument is of size more than 8 byte
then the utility function to extract bytes failed with the above error.

ARM process record gets the wrong register number for VMOV (from core
register to single-precision register). That is, we should record
the D register rather than the S pseudo register. The patch also
removes the condition "bit (arm_insn_r->arm_insn, 20)" check, which
has been checked above.
It fixes the following internal error,

I found that odd that passing no arguments to feature_to_c.sh produces
this:
$ ./feature_to_c.sh
./feature_to_c.sh: 23: shift: can't shift that many
but passing one argument shows the help:
$ ./feature_to_c.sh hello
Usage: ./feature_to_c.sh OUTPUTFILE INPUTFILE...
This patch changes the script to show the help in both cases.

* features/feature_to_c.sh: Print the help when passing no
argument.
I happen to see that comments to start_step_over isn't in sync with

This patch adds a new test for stepping over clone syscall.

Invoke step_over_syscall "clone" and break_cond_on_syscall
"clone".
* gdb.base/step-over-clone.c: New file.
disp-step-syscall.exp is extended for stepping over syscall instruction
in different cases, with or without displaced stepping, and stepping
over by GDBserver.
This patch rename disp-step-syscall.exp to step-over-syscall.exp to
reflect this.

(disp_step_cross_syscall): Rename to ...

We can also extend disp-step-syscall.exp to test GDBserver step over
breakpoint on syscall instruction. That is, we set a breakpoint
with a false condition on syscall instruction, so that GDBserver will
step over it.
This test triggers a GDBserver internal error, which can be fixed by
this series.

* gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp (break_cond_on_syscall): New.
If target supports condition evaluation on target, invoke
break_cond_on_syscall for fork and vfork.
disp-step-syscall.exp was added to test displaced stepping over syscall
instructions, in which we set breakpoint on syscall instruction, and
step over it. In fact, we can extend the test to non-displaced-stepping
case. This patch wraps the test with displaced stepping on and off.
Note that the indentation and format isn't adjusted here to make this
patch easy to read. The following patch will fix the format separately.

* gdb.base/disp-step-syscall.exp: Don't invoke

on if supported.
This patch moves some code out of disp_step_cross_syscall to a new proc
check_pc_after_cross_syscall and setup. Procedure setup is to start a
fresh GDB and compute the syscall instruction address.

when GDBserver steps over a thread, other threads have been suspended,
the "stepping" thread may create new thread, but GDBserver doesn't set
it suspend count to 1. When GDBserver unsuspend threads, the child's
suspend count goes to -1, and the assert is triggered. In fact, GDBserver
has already taken care of suspend count of new thread when GDBserver is
suspending all threads except the one GDBserver wants to step over by
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-07/msg00946.html
+ /* If we're suspending all threads, leave this one suspended
+ too. */
+ if (stopping_threads == STOPPING_AND_SUSPENDING_THREADS)
+ {
+ if (debug_threads)
+ debug_printf ("HEW: leaving child suspended\n");
+ child_lwp->suspended = 1;
+ }
but that is not enough, because new thread is still can be spawned in
the thread which is being stepped over. This patch extends the
condition that GDBserver set child's suspend count to one if it is
suspending threads or stepping over the thread.

The glibc manual says, on _GNU_SOURCE:
"You should define these macros by using ‘#define’ preprocessor
directives at the top of your source code files. These directives must
come before any #include of a system header file."
I instead put it in the header all the .c files of the testcase must
include anyway.
